Make sure you join our Patreon to get the extra interview chunk with Matt Stoller. On this episode of the Katie Halper Show, we dissect the way the media smeared Bernie Sanders and his position on identity politics, which, it turns out, is much more nuanced than the position of his peers. Lee argues that the media disingenuously and intentionally distorts what Sanders says for political and ideological reasons and that people who are honest mistakenly pick up this manufactured narrative. We then talk to Matt Stoller about how and why Trump was elected and how our response to him will shape the agenda. He also warns us against taking economists seriously and shares his thoughts on Paul Krugman and populism vs progressivism. And he kills some narratives with his own bare hands. He's also a surprisingly good motivational speaker.

I make guest co-host Jesse Myerson very uncomfortable through my analysis of the film Get Out. Then guest Matt Bruenig talks about why liberals are like conservatives but without the coherence. Also, check out our bonus ep with Nando Vila in which we talk about the #BernieAllIn Town Hall with coal miners in Kentucky & #MaddowGate https://www.patreon.com/posts/8465126

This episode is a live taping we did with PRINCETON historian Matt Karp. Matt talks about Frederick Douglas, the Civil War, the inspiration he takes from the periodic over throw of the ruling class, themistake the Dems make in courting woke Goldman Sachs, and the value of "Bernie Would have Won". Matt's analysis of the Kansas special election is especially relevant to Ossoff's loss.

Donna Halper is an associate professor of media at Lesley University. She is also in the process of leading an incredible life in radio as a music director, later as a consultant, and now as a professor of media. She is largely credited for breaking new bands including Rush when she was the music director of WMMS in Cleveland.
We spent our time reconnecting as I had e-mailed her back in the 90’s to discuss radio. Our conversation dove-tailed to religion and ironically, I had no idea about the vital role she played in propelling the career of my favourite band, Rush. It wasn’t until 1999 when I finally made the connection. This week, I decided that it was time to meet her for the first time and talk about some of the subjects that have been at the center of my life… religion, radio and Rush.

Eli's Freestyle:
At our last show Matt was ready to hype up the crowd
So he confidently picked up the mic
He screamed "Put your hands up" but the mic wasn't plugged in
Therefore, the crowd did not get hyped
Matt's Haiku:
Back at our last show
Eli got drunk and passed out
at 8, me too though
